The Manchester derby is a key game, in betting terms particularly, as to the likely winner of the Premier League title. It's time to nail your colours to the mast - Red or Blue.
At present Man City sit on top with a 2 point cushion and a 2 goals superior goal difference yet they as still second favourites at 3.4/ 3.5 to win the Premiership. That's got to be good value! If the game is a draw they obviously maintain this position but offer Chelsea (don't write them off) a chance to close in.
City go into this game off the back of a home win in the Champions League. Utd on the otherhand had a long travel to a tricky away tie which they came through 2 nil winners.
I think Utd's midweek travel balances out their home advantage somewhat and i can only see one outcome.
So i'm going...

This time I have to bow to the greater knowledge of Betfair Ambassador Lee Dixon. Spot on Lee - Draw, Gerrard to score - excellent work.
I do think Liverpool did have the chances to win it though and came close to that 2-1 correct score for what would have been a massive 12.5. The losing punters catchphrase "what might have been" springs to mind.
I did recommend Liverpool to win with draw no bet so the main recommedation ended up as a shot to nothing.
I would have liked Kenny to have started with Carroll and Suarez and I think that says everything about the his respect for Man Utd.

Just read what lee Dixon had to say about tomorrow early kick - Liverpool v Man Utd.
I agree with Lee it is bound to be a feisty affair. However, I see Liverpool coming out just on top. King Kenny is starting to see a Liverpool side worthy of the Liverpool name. If Steven Gerrard is back and with players like Carroll, Suarez, Downing plus in a supporting role Bellamy, Kuyt, Adam then Liverpool in my view have more than enough fire power to win it.
I thought Liverpool got a real bargain in signing Jose Enrique. Enrique has the pace to cope with the threat of Ashley Young, Valencia or Nani.However, I am not convinced by the defense though particularly in central area. So I do think Liverpool with concede.
So my bets would be:
Draw No Bet - Liverpool to win at 2.1
Correct Score...

It does look like happening anytime soon but I was casting my eye over Specials - Next Man Utd Manager betting, and one man jumps right out.
He is of course Mark Hughes.
As a player he was a great pro and as well as being a United legend played at Barcelona and Chelsea. As a manager he transformed Wales, cut his teeth in the Premier League with Blackburn and then went on to Man City and then Fulham.
Make no mistake with this CV and his meticulous and professional approach to management, he should be favourite in this market. If Ferguson retired tomorrow, I would advise taking any price above 3 but today with no prospect of a quick appointment he is available at a tasty 18.
A long term play for the serious investor.
